Central Park to Harlem and the Bronx and then head south on the FDR Drive into

Queens and Brooklyn. From there, riders will take the Brooklyn-Queens

Expressway onto the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge into Staten Island. The route

covers 40 miles. Scroll down for a route map.

Boylan Soda CampaignWhen researching consumer soda drinking habits, I found that many of them were wary of the unhealthy ingredients in soda. These print ads are part of a campaign designed to highlight Boylan Soda’s use of high quality ingredients. Designed as part of a course project.

Schweikert: Columnist picks college over winter break

By Zach Schweikert (/writers/zach-schweikert/) Keepin' it fake

1 month ago

There’s nothing quite like finishing that last final. You’re writing like a maniac, BSing the last part of your essay aboutchecks and balances and the role of media in democracy and the first breath of the professor’s final words breaks thesilence. Everyone puts down their pencils and Winter Break has begun. That’s when I get excited. Why?

Because it’s Winter Break, for goodness sake! The tests are over, they were cake. I won’t be stressed, I’ll have no tests; withtime to sleep, I will be blessed. No more crunch time, no more deadlines, I won’t have to look for my newspaper headlines.My folks will appear in the Honda outside, I’ll be so dang happy that I know I’ll cry. I’ll pack up my stuff — in the trunk itwill go — and we’ll race towards New Jersey ahead of the snow. The radio blasting those songs that I hate — yes, the seasonis coming, but I’d rather wait. With wreathes and lights, my house will be decked. I’d say “Christmas trees,” but that term’snot correct.

It’s not Santa, nor cookies that make break the best, it’s the fact that now I can finally rest. So I’ll sleep! I’ll sleep and I’llnap and I’ll slumber. I’ll forget about credits and debits and numbers. I’ll veg out for days, for weeks on end. And I’ll hangout with all of those high school friends. And I’ll go to the movies, and spend lots of money. Unlike in the ‘Cuse, the skieswill be sunny. I’ll play my guitar, I won’t fear being noisy. Good lord, I can’t wait to be back in New Joisey.

For two or three weeks, I’ll sleep in every day. I’ll eat tons of food. I won’t care what I weigh. I won’t have any homework.I’ll be super lazy. I can do all the stuff that would likely seem crazy. I won’t shower, or bathe. I’ll drink straight out thecarton. I won’t worry ‘bout girls, or parties or Barton’s. I’ll be perfectly happy, at least for a while, and affixed to my facewill be a huge smile.

I’ll see my family and that will be nice. I’ll probably go without checking MySlice. One week will go by, but it seems morelike four. And then I’ll realize — this is kind of a bore.

I’ll miss my roommate, my dorm and my friends, and I’ll start to wish break would come to an end. A month’s a long time,and it goes by real slow. I’ll get sick of the cookies and men made of snow. Time ticks away at its sluggish, snail pace, andI’ll be ready to get the heck out of this place.

I’ll miss bad peanut butter and stale moldy bread. I’ll miss squirming around my uncomfortable bed. I’ll miss cookingramen at 2 in the morning, and not caring at all about DPS warnings. I’ll miss freezing my toes off when I wait for the bus.I’ll miss disappointment when I get a C plus. I’ll miss being broke and not eating breakfast. I’ll miss not having a homeworkchecklist. I’ll miss being addressed as an Orange Friend — or maybe I won’t, but those e-mails won’t end.

Winter break can get boring, and gets boring fast. On the flipside, college is often a blast. But a part of me misses the oldstruggle bus, because college ain’t college unless part of it sucks.
